Dense and solid from teh start, with deep plum, wild berry and earth aromas. Ripe, whole and nice on the palate, with crusty blackberry, chocolate and spice flavors. Finishes lightly toasted, with comportment. Real good for everyday Malbec.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2010 Reserva Malbec contains 7% Cabernet Sauvignon in its blend. It, too, spent 6 months in French oak. It offers a nearly identical aromatic and flavor profile to the Menduco cuvee while delivering plenty of savory fruit in a nicely balanced package. Drink this tasty effort over the next 3-4 years.

The Uco Valley is located at the foothills of the Andes mountain range. Millions of years ago, some parts of the mountain range were submerged under the sea, which explains the presence (at more than 1 200 m/3 900 ft.a.s.l.) of sea fossils like the ammonite, which represents us through our logo. They are considered silent witnesses of the origin of the Andes and today, by being part of our genuine terroir, are witnesses of the origin of our wines.
Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
